  1. NEVER lock threads like this. The delicious part is when said player comes back and does something awesome.
  2. There weren't 36,000 there. There weren't close to 36,000 there.
  3. We are paying Hamilton $25 mil. And how much we paying Vernon this year? For Hamilton to blow off the Rangers fans about not being a 'baseball town', and then see the stands at the beginning of the game last night, it makes him look silly. But then, he also looks silly waving at junk for strike 3 all the time.
  4. How many supposedly hetero guys here on angelswin would prattle on incessantly about Escobar's junk? Season after season.
  5. I can only speak for myself. I will never complain if Trout or Pete try to steal. I will complain if Mike starts his stupid bunting, or the always-failing hit and runs. And I will complain when Trout tries to steal late in the game on Sunday, has a great jump, and Pujols decides he has to take a hack on a pitch where Trout got a great jump (there weren't two strikes) - and fouls it off.
  6. Racking up the best games of the season.
  7. That was a great story. Scioscia's 'book reports' he made rookies do were hilarious. BTW, we hear so much about Lackey and his game 7 WS win. Ramon Ortiz owns the only World Series road win in the 53-year franchise history. Just sayin'. I always liked him.
  8. Under Scioscia as GM, players would be picked based on bunting ability.
  9. This is part of the problem. Too many people clinging to an event that happened 11 years ago. Not today. One player on today's roster was playing in the major leagues in 2002. That was a long time ago.
  10. Fine. Fire both their asses. I just want scioscia gone. And for the record, I don't quibble w Scioscia's bp decisions. He is trying to make chicken salad out of chicken s. But I think the manager message has gotten stale, and the braindead baserunning/small ball just kills me.
  11. I doubt the Rays tolerate brain dead baserunning and Runnyball, like the Scioscia regime. Who cares about Tampa firing their manager? I just want the Angels manager gone.
  12. for what its worth, baseball reference has their pythag at 4 wins.
  13. That's 16%. Take out a game against the Rangers and one against the Astros, and the Angels have led for 5 innings out of 108, or 4.6% of the innings. Great stuff, guys. Makes it super enjoyable to be a fan.
  14. The number of times that no-name pitchers look like Cy Young against us tells you all you need to know.
  15. Who put the considerable thought into wasting $50 million on GMJ? The organization who said that "hitters change" during their career. Arte's philosophy has been to "make a splash" during the winter. It leads to hasty, dumb decisions.
  16. You were wrong about Howie. You were wrong about Jiminez. Everybody gets stuff wrong. But you are particularly annoying because you are wrong when your post was trying to correct me.
  17. Since you didn't see it, have been wrong at least once on this thread, and have no clue what I am discussing, you should take a break. When you see the play in question, come back and talk.
  18. Why is this even up for debate? Anyone watching it knows what happened.
  19. I never said he made a "baserunning error". *YOU* did. Not me. I said he was rounding second on a full head of steam, heading toward third, on a ball that never left the infield. With two outs. With Pujols at bat. He applied the brakes and was lucky to not get thrown out. It was freaking stupid to be charging around second. Brain dead baserunning. Since the guy is new to the team, he fits in beautifully.
  20. Will you just mind your own business. Everything I wrote in that post was correct. EVERYTHING. I watched it. I don't give a shiat what MLB play by play said.
